Lyrically Gregory was more of a lover but Prince Far I brought a different perspective to this diss track. THE VOICE OF THUNDER WANTED MORE from/FOR Joe Gibb 'Stealing from my brother' VINEYARD IS CORRUPTION IS a massive statement. A threat comes theretafter. Best diss track NO SUBLIMINALS
Far I also fell out with Branson - " A pickle with no place on my plate" in the wonderful "Virgin" taking the toothy greed monster to task for stealing his money. RIP Fari I, met him a couple of times, not a chatty guy, but deffo a "presence"

Silveira in Bikita ...1990...we used to skank and rock
Good tune.
GREGORY. ISAAC. BELLISIMA. INTERPRETACION, PRINCE. FARI. POETA. PERFECTA. CONBINACION....SEEN..,.,
Si tuviera que elegir una cancion de reggae que me ponga los pelos de punta, esta seria una sin duda. Big up Gregory... descanse en paz.
